PARTY. DEPORTED ADHESION OF THE CITIZENS OK MATA JUOUA8 TO GENERAL OBTKUA. Tl.o partisans of General Ortega in Now York were yesterday unusually elated owing to tho recep tion of private despatches t.om their Liberal liionus In fticxico, tho intelligence at hand announcing that the chiefs in and about Ma'amoras had ex pressed their resolve lo raily around Ortoga.

There is no concealing the lact that tho partisans of General Ortcira ate ntlod wit ) a bitter hatred to wards Santa Anna Thr latter olnoltuin is dee ared to bo an emissary of tho .trench Government and a dendly loo 6 the L bera's. though Santa Anna is reported to have repeatedly o lie red his cervices and co-operation to Ortega, the latter nas Invariably de clined to accept either, the general opinion boing that ti.e first named Mexican would not dare set his lout on the soli ot his country, even it his adhesion to the Ortega tuction were uutelgued and unmurred by any uiritre ptiuee. It is stated that Sicretary Seward recently autho rised Geneia1 Ortega to deny otlicially auy declara tion to tho effect that hanta Anna ever had any diplomatic intercourse either with tho ."-ocrctary of Mate or with tho United Btates Government, and that the General is in possession Oi documents that can be ub ished at any moment lor the purpose ot showinir the true position occuoied by Santa Anna. As an instance of the great unpopu'urity of the lat ter among thn Mexicans ot this city, it is averred that when he required a secretary ho was literally unable to find an assistant among any of his follow citizens, and was compelled to accept the aid of Naphgi.

Tlio I'resitlcnt a. UmiriMsr. THE ONLY TRUE PLAN OF RECONSTRUCTION. A Lesson from History. SOUTHERN STATE GOVERNMENTS NOT REPUBLICAN IN FORM. Universal Suffrage Demanded. SW.WSNV V "TIIE ONE-MAN POWER VER SUS CONGRESS." Ktc. Ktc, Etc.. Ktc. i Etc., Ktc. Boston, October 2. There was a large audi ence assembled in the Music Hall iu this city this evening, to listen to a lecture upon "The One-Mun Power vs. Congress," by Hon. Charles Sumner. The speech was prepared some weeks since for delivery at the Republican State Con vention; but on that occasion Mr. Sumner failed lo appeur, aud he has since worked it over in the form of a lecture. After beiot; introduced to the audience, he spike a follows: Speech of Mr. Sumner. Mr. rresldeut: It is now more than a year eince I had the honor of addressing my fellow riiizens of Massachusetts. Uu that occasion I dwelt on what seemed to be the proper policy towards the States reccutly in rebellion, insisting that it was our duty, whi'e rcuouncing in demnity ior the past, to obtain at least security tor the future; and this security, I maintained, could be found only iu the exclusion of ex Rebels Irom political power, aud in irreversible guaratces especial y aoplicab'.e tj the national iretdmau. Dunn? the tuterveulng months the country bas been atritatel by this question, which was perplexed by an unexpected ditl'er euce between the President and Uoiitires. The President insists upon installing ex-Rebels in political power, and sets at naught tho claim of guaiantces und the idea of security for the future, while ho denies to Congress any control over this question, and takes it all to himself. Congress has asserted its coutrol, and has en deavored to shut out ex-Rebels from political power and to establish guarantees, to the end that there itiiahl be security lor the future. Meanwhile, the States recently in rebellion, with the exception of Tennessee, are without representation in Congress. Thus stands tho cai-e. THE TWO PARTIES IN THK CONTROVERSY. The two parties in the controversy are the President on the one side, and the people of tho United States in Congress assembled on the other side; the llrst representing the Executive, the second representing the Legislative. It is the One-Man Power vs. Congress. Of course, each ot these performs its part in the Government; but, until now, It has always been supposed that the Legislative gave the law to the Executive, and not that tbe Executive gave tbe law to thu Legislative. Perhaps this irrational assumption becomes more astonishing when it is considered that the actual President, besides being the creature ol an accident, is inferior in ability and character, while the Ilou'e ol Representatives is eminent in both respects. A President, who has already sunk below any other President, even Buchanan, madly undertakes to give the law to a House of Eppresenta;ivj8 which, there is reason to believe, is the best that has sat since th formation of the Constitution. Thus, in looking at the parties, we aro tempted to ex claim: Such a President dictating to such a Congress! It was said of Gustavus Adolphus that be bad drilled the Diet of Sweden to vote or be silent at the word of command; but Andrew Johnson Is not Gustavus Adolphui, and tho American Congress Is not tbe Diet of Sweden, IRREVERSIBLE OU1K1NTBF8 U08T BE HiD The question at issue is oLe of the vastest ever presented tor practical decision, involving the nume and weal of this republic at home and abroad. It is not a military question; it is a question of statesmanship. VVe are to secure by counsel what was won by wur. Failure now will make tho war itself a lailure; surrender now will undo all our victories. Let the Presi dent prevail, and straightway the pliehted faith of the republic will be broken: the national creditor and tho national freedman will lie sacri ficed; the Rebellion itself will Haunt it Insulting power; the whole country, in leneth aud breadth, will be disturbed, aud the Rebel region will be handed over to misrule and anarchy. Let Con gress prevail and all this will be reversed; tbe pliehted laith of the republic will be preserved; tlif national creditor aud tho national frcedtnan will be protected; the Rebellion itself will be trampled out forever; the whole country, in length and breadth, will be at peace, and the Rebel region, no longer harassed by contro versy and injustice, will enjoy the richest fruits of security aud reconciliation. To labor ior this caiiKe may well tempt the young aud rejoice the old. And now, to-day, I protest again against any admission of ex-Rebel.t to tho great partner ship of this republic, and I renew the claim of irreversible guaiantees especially applica ble to the natioual creditor and the national treedraau, lnsisiing now, as I did a year ago, that it is our duty, while renouncing indemnity for the past, to obtain at least security for the future. At the close of a terrible wur, which bus WHsted our treasure, which bas murdered our fellow-citizens, which has filled tho laud with lunerals, which bas maimed and wounded multitudes whom death has spared, and which has broken uo the very foundations cf peac, ourtiM duty' is to provide safeguards ior the future. This can bo ouly by provisions, sure, fundamental, and Jrrepealable, which shall fix forever tho results pt tha war, the obligations ot Government, and the equal rights of all. Such Is the suggestion of common prudence and of gell-defense, as well as of common honesty. To this end wo must make haste slowly. States whioh precipitated themselves out of Congress must not be permitted to precipitate them selves back. They must not be allowed to enter those halls which they treasonably de serted, until we bave every reasonable assurance of luture good conduct. We must not admit them and then repent our folly. Those words, Cvttlinutd v th Steend Pagt.)
